Get answers to common questions about Medium Senegalese Twist – Waist Length.

Installation typically takes 6–8 hours depending on hair density, length, and stylist speed. We schedule accordingly and may take longer for thicker hair or custom parting; bring water and entertainment for comfort.

Wait 48 hours before washing to allow the twists to set. After that, dilute shampoo, gently cleanse the scalp, rinse downward, and air dry fully to preserve twist shape and longevity.

With proper care, this style typically lasts six to eight weeks, sometimes longer. Avoid heavy daily manipulation, moisturize lightly, and schedule touch-ups to keep edges neat and reduce frizz.

When installed without excessive tension, this protective style reduces manipulation and can protect hair. Avoid tight parts, monitor scalp comfort, and give hair breaks between installations to prevent stress.

We recommend minimizing heat to preserve twist integrity and synthetic fibers. If using heat on human-hair extensions, use low settings and a protectant. Gentle styling maintains twist longevity and prevents frizz.

Moisturize scalp and twists weekly with light oils or leave-in sprays, sleep on silk or satin, cleanse scalp every two to three weeks, and avoid heavy products that cause buildup to extend wear.
